Observation of Squeezing in the Electron Quantum Shot Noise of a Tunnel Junction
arXiv:1306.3913 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.111.136601
Abstract
We report the measurement of the fluctuations of the two quadratures of the electromagnetic field generated by a quantum conductor, a dc- and ac-biased tunnel junction placed at very low temperature.We observe that the variance of the fluctuations on one quadrature can go below that of vacuum, i.e., that the radiated field is squeezed. This demonstrates the quantum nature of the radiated electromagnetic field.
